It is with great sadness...

that i've decided to leave WetCanvas. These last few months have been very trying and I feel I need to take a step back and concentrate on my art.

It's not only the recent flaming, but also the pressures of trying to moderate, and grow as an artist. It would be best if I just stay away.

To all of you I wish you much continued growth and success in your work, and I hope when I get a better perspective, i can come back and help out again...

so with these words I just want to say thank you and,








APRIL FOOLS!

You're not getting rid of me that easily, even if you wanted. hehehe

Arlene. I was sure when I started to read your post that it was APRIL FOOL'S.
Today is my 42 wedding anniversary so I am always ready for anything on April 1st.
I'm glad it was a joke.

Arlene, you are incorrigible

...you had me going too.

I'm sitting there thinking, "Who will nag us about doing backgrounds first now?" and "Who has been flaming? We'll just run the bloke out of town!"

<mumble> That's the second time someone got me today.

P.S. Do you play poker too?

aw thanks folks, but no need to worry, I'm too addicted to this place...I mean this is how I start my day after reading emails...I come to WC.

Now I've given up regular coffee, drinking, and a host of other things...I think I'm entitled to one addiction!

Sorry Leanne..................... NOT

Lori as long as you laughed!

Jamie in case you haven't noticed, i don't back away...I stay till the bitter end...so no need to worry!

Colleen, Happy Anniversary! Um, was there a hidden meaning in marrying that day?

Hayley, it may not have been nice, but it was funny?

Fern, yes I play poker...I was in my summer house many years ago and it was raining, and the men decided they wanted to play poker for dimes...I asked if I could play...Well you can imagine the comments...they finally let me in, and the women sat around watching and cheering as I beat the cr...stuffing out of all the men.

Em, You're welcome.

LOL, good one!

I know a group of coworkers that are going to play a wicked practical joke on their boss today. They do it every year a little differently and every year he falls for it, hehe! I'm sure I'll hear the funny story later...

Arlene,

That was the first April fools joke today. You knew our monitors are not big enough. I thought "Oh No".
One up for you. Hope you had a great day so far.

YOU ARE MEAN!!!! I hadn't checked in here for a few days, and then I come and see this, and think, "Oh, no...What have they done to her in the last few days?"

Whew! Well, Arelene, 'nothing like a little scare to make us all realize yet again how much we appreciate you! Happy April Fool's Day.

Hugs,
(the other) Jamie
